Makes no sense frod. If you assert that your god has no explanatory power, your bible has no explanatory power, iow is meaningless. So is there some typo in the above or what?

Hmmm. There's one rule here: nothing is sure. Maybe our science, intraceable as it is to god, is his explanation for mankind. We definitely need some mystical vapour here.

Hmmm, yeah...interesting mind read.

Yeah, me too. And we take great care in trying to reconstruct consistency from nothing. However it cannot be excluded completely that some misinterpretation in the near future might have been arisen from some debating mishap in your past.
